Enjoying Potato Cauliflower Gratin & Netflix {recipe}

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Netflix for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Can you believe Thanksgiving is already upon us? With the hustle and bustle of the holidays fast approaching, I’m all for slowing down and stealing moments back in front of the television. {{laughing}} Netflix and I are on the same wave length because they are encouraging users to take time out, even in the midst of chores and to-dos, and enjoy some streaming enjoyment. What better place to start then in the kitchen?

With this in mind, Netflix partnered with celebrity chef Curtis Stone to create custom holiday recipes, all of which make the perfect pair to your favorite shows and movies available on Netflix. I decided to try {and share} his delicious Potato, Cauliflower and Camembert Gratin with my family before streaming some of our favorite movies like The Crood’s, Despicable Me II, Monsters University, The Hunger Games and allof the 007 movies.

About Netflix:

Netflix allows members enjoy their favorite TV shows and movies anytime and anywhere they want.

With Netflix you can watch your favorite shows on an iPad in the kitchen, the big screen in the living room, or even on your phone while waiting in line at the grocery store. {{wow!}}

Netflix is making it easier to bring the family together this Thanksgiving by suggesting TV shows and movies you can watch while the turkey is baking. {{how fabulous is that?}}

This Thanksgiving while we are busy like bee’s near the oven, we’ll also be streaming some of our favorite TV shows via Netflix. I can’t wait to catch up on ‘Sherlock’ Holmes with my husband and girls while my boys beg to watch Kickin’ It.

Step 2: Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and stir until melted. Add the onions, garlic, and thyme and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are tender but have not taken on any color. Add the cauliflower and cook for about 6 minutes, stirring often, or until softened. Add the cream and milk and bring to a simmer. Add the cheese and stir until it melts, then remove from the heat and discard the thyme stems.

Step 3: Working in batches, puree the mixture in a blender; return to the pot. Season generously to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Stir the potato slices into the hot cream mixture to coat. Spoon 1 cup of the cream mixture into the baking dish. Spread the potatoes and the remaining cream mixture evenly in the dish. Cover with aluminum foil and put on a rimmed baking sheet.

Step 5: Bake for about 1 hour, or until a knife can be inserted easily into the potatoes. Uncover the dish, raise the oven temperature to 400°F, and continue baking for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 to 20 minutes.
